Hello everyone, I installed Windows 8 RTM a few weeks ago. It's not my first time installing it, but it's the first time having two annoying problems:
1) Randomly, the system clock changes time all by itself - to fix it I have to open the time window and sync it with the internet.
2) Randomly, internet connection stops working - to fix I have to run troubleshooting. Windows will find a problem with IP on the "Ethernet" connection and fix it.
3) In rare occasions, my PC freezes and I need to restart it (a BSOD once happened, but after that only freezes)
How can I permanently solve these problems?
This is what I've already tried:
- Reset
- Virus scan
- Stop/reset the Windows Time service
- Disable/re-enable Windows Time automatic internet sync
- Change time from BIOS
- Change motherboard battery
